Pierre Dukan, France's "top diet guru," is suggesting that kids be graded based on their weight. Even though France is still one of the least obese countries in Europe, Dukan is conscious of obesity and doesn't want it to become a big problem with French kids. His idea is to award the kids extra points for having healthy BMI's in their last two years of high school. He says that it won't be insulting toward the more obese kids because it will simply motivate them. It's not his intention to punish them, and he doesn't think it will affect the kids that don't need to lose weight, and it only serves as a motivation to overweight kids to lose weight.
